About Sheila

📺 HELLO AUSTRALIA… I’M SHEILA, AND THIS IS MY AUDITION TAPE 📺 Hi everyone. My name is Sheila, and if this were a reality TV show, I’d definitely be described as “big personality, slightly chaotic, but impossible not to love.” I like to think of myself as the breakout star of the season. You know, the one who causes a bit of drama, steals the camera time, and then wins everyone over anyway. I’m a very devoted contestant. I follow my people everywhere. Like… everywhere. If I can’t see you, I get a bit emotional and assume you’ve been voted off the show without telling me. I’m extremely food motivated (craft services is my favourite department) and I’ve already learned to sit, which I feel is a strong start to my training montage. Meal times are… competitive. I firmly believe in sampling everyone else’s dish, so I do need supervision to stop me from helping myself to other dogs’ dinners. I walk really nicely on lead when I’ve got my harness on, though I’ll admit I’ve had a few moments where I thought the lead itself might be a chew toy. I’m improving. Growth arc and all that. When we’re out in public, I’m a total celebrity. I love attention, love pats, and will happily stop to greet my fans. Sometimes noisy places make me a bit nervous, but with a bit of encouragement from my support crew, I find my brave-girl edit and keep going. In the group challenges (also known as “being around other dogs”), I’m very… enthusiastic. I jump, lick, and sometimes nip because I get too excited, but I do listen when I’m corrected and I’m learning my manners. I wouldn’t need to be an only dog at all I just need a bit of training so I don’t come on too strong in my auditions. At home, I live with two boys, 13 and 9. I play a bit rough with the 9-year-old, but I’m getting better and learning my inside-the-house rules. I’ve also got a rooster and a hen in my cast list I’m mostly fine with them, though recently I’ve started barking at them like they’re dramatic guest stars. I travel really well in the car and usually just go to sleep, which I think proves I’m very professional on set. Crate training is… a work in progress. Currently, I believe the crate is a prop I do not like, but we’re negotiating. In my downtime, I enjoy chewing cardboard, tissues, shoes, and basically anything I can find, because every great star needs hobbies. So that’s me. Sheila. A bit of a menace. Very lovable. Big personality. If you’re looking for a dog who will bring energy, laughs, affection, and a whole lot of character into your life… 🎬 Please don’t vote me off. Adopt me instead. 🐾
